Contraction Series

In this exercise you will work on the execution of the contraction. Working on the basic engagement of the lower abdominals, the movement of the spine, and the breath and expansion of the torso.

Rest a hand on your lower abdominals or lower back so you can feel it work. The contraction starts low and pulls in while the upper body stays tall. It deepens with a foot slid back, then finishes with a step into a deep contraction and an open expansion.
